Waiting three more years to oust Rajapaksas won’t leave a country to rule: Gammanpila (VIDEO)

Date:

The statement made by the Speaker claiming that Parliament cannot be dissolved until the passing of two and a half more years is not true, former Minister Udaya Gammanpila said, speaking to a briefing held in Colombo today (29).

Based on the President’s discretion the dissolution of Parliament may not be possible for another two and a half years, but it can be dissolved at any given time, was a resolution passed in Parliament, he claimed.

MPs who backed the corrupt and treacherous conduct of Basil Rajapaksa, who was unable to face the public when the movement on dissolving Parliament was carried out by the team which Gammanpila is also in, are having a difficult time facing the truth, the former Minister revealed.

Commenting on the Opposition who is waiting for another three years to ‘send the Rajapaksas home,’ Gammanpila stressed that there will not be a country left to rule, should they wait for that long.
